A Guide to Contemporary French Usage - Softcover
This is a guide to those areas of French usage where students beginning advanced work need help in crossing the threshold from hesitancy and uncertainty to fluency and confidence. The authors highlight a large number of problems of current French usage, both of a texical and grammatical nature, which presents difficulty for the foreign learner, and set these within a framework both easy to understand and exploit. The book is divided into three main sections: vocabulary, grammar and register and style.

Book Description:
This is a new, thoroughly revised edition of the acclaimed Using French. It provides guidance for those who have already acquired the basics of French and wish to extend their knowledge of the language. Unlike conventional grammars, it gives special attention to those areas of the vocabulary and grammatical usage of contemporary French which cause most difficulty to English-speakers, and incorporates the concept of register differences throughout. Clearly laid out and easy to consult, it will prove invaluable to all who wish to improve their fluency and confidence in French.
